“Europe Faces Increased Heat Mortality in Coming Decades”
CLIMATE ARCHIVE
On the Origins of Subantarctic Mode Waters
A modeling study shows how warm subtropical waters and cold Antarctic waters combine to form an Indo-Pacific water mass that plays a key role in Earth’s climate.
Climate Change Made Extreme Heat Days More Likely
A new attribution study shows every single extreme heat event since last May was made more probable by climate change.
How Greenland’s Glacial Troughs Influence Ocean Circulation
Glacial troughs in Antarctica promote mixing of warm and cold water, affecting global climate. A new study explores whether the same is true in troughs along Greenland’s coastline.
Keeping Soil Healthy: Why It Matters and How Science Can Help
Healthy soil is the foundation of our food, clean water, and a stable climate, and cutting-edge science helps us to protect it.
As Climate Changes, So Do Gardens Across the United States
Warmer winter temperatures have altered frost patterns and growing seasons across the United States, forcing botanical gardens and arboretums to adapt.
Water Density Shifts Can Drive Rapid Changes in AMOC Strength
High-latitude variations in density, which appear to be driven by changes in atmospheric pressure, can propagate to midlatitudes and affect the current’s strength within just a year.
Preocupaciones sobre el litio, el agua y el clima en los dos desiertos más altos de la Tierra
La extracción de salmuera para satisfacer la demanda de recursos en medio de la transición a energías renovables está afectando los recursos hídricos en Sudamérica y China. Los hidrólogos pueden ayudar a comprender cómo y a sumarse a la búsqueda de soluciones.
Cheese in the Time of Industrial Farming and Climate Change
Grasslands and cows’ diets are shifting as the climate warms, but an agricultural experiment in France reveals the importance of providing cows with pasture.
Simplicity May Be the Key to Understanding Soil Moisture
A pared-down model that considers only precipitation and net surface radiation seems to solve long-standing problems.
Busy Hurricane Season Expected in 2025
A new NOAA report predicts an active Atlantic hurricane season, though global weather patterns could still shift predictions.
